PHP日期解析成新格式[重复]

Question

This question already has an answer here:

• Convert one date format into another in PHP 15 answers

I have a function that prints out:

echo $post->EE_Event->primary_datetime()->start_date_and_time();

result:

21-02-15 08:00

But i want to display it as:

08:00 21st February, 2015

I need help with a function to grab the existing printed out date and reformat it.

I have tried a few snippets online, but nothing that worked.

Answer 1

Try this code:

$yourDate = '21-02-15 08:00'; // $post->EE_Event->primary_datetime()->start_date_and_time()
$date = DateTime::createFromFormat('j-m-y G:i', $yourDate);
echo $date->format('G:i dS F, Y');

In PHP >= 5.3 we have excellent date API. See more here: http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.createfromformat.php
